January 20th, Thursday…
Cui Geng ate his Fish-Catching Take-Out and listened to everyone else's conversations.
"Ai, I was criticized badly by my readers for ending my chapter with a cliffhanger again yesterday."
"What does that count for? Isn't it normal to get criticized for leaving cliffhangers?"
"That's right, cliffhanger endings are so commonplace."
"Huh? Is this normal to all of you?"
"Nonsense. Look at dramas and comics; won't they have to end each episode with an unresolved problem, too? Readers might criticize the surface, but they cannot hide their genuine reactions. Once you upload the next chapter, they will come back and read it. Cliffhanger endings are good for making readers stick around."
"If you don't leave cliffhangers, your readers will stop reading after this chapter. Your next chapter will have fewer readers, then!"
"Writers who don't write cliffhanger endings are bad writers!"
